;W[pd]WL[1487.585]C[This move should be responded to. In the opening there are 5 main phases:

1. Taking corners
2. Enclosing and approaching corners
3. Playing large side moves
4. Playing small side moves
5. Moving toward the center

Sometimes these are played out of order but usually we want to respond to approaches]
(;B[gc]BL[1477.636]TR[cd]C[This approach is a little non-standard. Normally we approach a 5-3 stone from the inside at the 3-4]
;W[pg]WL[1482.688]C[Now white has time to strengthen the corner]
;B[do]BL[1471.936]TR[cd]C[This is okay, however I think pincering white's stone on top at the 3-4 might be better considering he didn't respond earlier]
;W[cm]WL[1479.178]C[Yilun Yang 7p has a saying about approach moves in the opening:

1 stone against 1 stone - okay to tenuki
2 stones against 1 stone - never tenuki
3 stones against 1 stone - always teunki

To tenuki is to play elsewhere - away from where you opponent played - so in this case you should respond.]

Try to recognize when your stones need help and when it is okay to play away. That comes mostly with experience - there is no formula to tell you when your stones need help.

Your opponent was clearly much stronger than you, so for a first full game you did well. I have taught dozens of people how to play go and they tend to make worse mistakes than these in their first few games. Not noticing an atari is a common one - which is why I always say "atari" in games against new players so they can start to recognize it. Moves like O5 at 69 show that you understand the idea of the game is to make territory which is more than most beginners can recognize.

Experience will be the best teacher. Play plenty of games. As the proverb goes - "Lose your first 100 games as quickly as possible."])
(;B[lo]C[Keep white out. In this case it is okay to touch his stone because it is already somewhat strong - it has the two stones in the coner helping it. This also does more to defend your points and white cannot cleanly cut you.]
